Error on laion_clap import

[vallihalli]

After installation with pip install laion-clap, calling import laion_clap produces following error:
(transformers version 4.30.2)

Traceback (most recent call last):

OSError: bert-base-uncased is not a local folder and is not a valid model identifier listed on 'https://huggingface.co/models'
If this is a private repository, make sure to pass a token having permission to this repo with `use_auth_token` or log in with `huggingface-cli login` and pass `use_auth_token=True`.

After testing, the Error could be resolved by replacing BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("bert-base-uncased") with BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("https://huggingface.co/google-bert/bert-base-uncased") in laion_clap\training\data.py

This error occurs on import, so i assume this isn't expected behaviour, even though i can see BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("bert-base-uncased") beeing used in many other projects as well. So i'm not sure if this is a transformer bug, or a bug in laion_clap, either way i'm not sure how to keep using clap if i cannot import.
Thanks for any help...

You need to set up the auth security token for use with the HF API. This line mentions this:

If this is a private repository, make sure to pass a token having permission to this repo with `use_auth_token` or log in with `huggingface-cli login` and pass `use_auth_token=True`.

See here for how to set a security token.

Once done, you can use the canonical model name (bert-base-uncased) for access via the API and this will then cache the model locally.
